“UNCONSTITUTIONAL” FIGHT FOR THE “CONSTITUTION”

It is for the very first time when the entire political scenario has been sparked with such an interesting situation in Karnataka, as interesting as IND-PAK match, after its assembly elections. This has hit a huge series of discussions all over the nation. Given the fact, that where the southern state Karnataka will serve as an oxygen to Congress, it remains a matter of reputation for the BJP’S “CONGRESS MUKT BHARAT” agenda.

But, the public came forward with a split-mandate and following to this what came to be strikingly interesting, among all the aftermath and calculations, remained the vigorous activeness of the party, Congress. After Goa and Manipur episodes, Congress, in Karnataka, seemed awakened from a deep sleep. From raising strong objections against the Governor’s grant of 15-long days to BJP so as to prove its majority, or the objections against the pre tem speaker or reaching out and knocking the doors of SC at the midnight pleading to stop Yeddyurappa to take the oath, Congress ushered with brimming activeness. And it was this new “active” form of Congress that had led the SC to cut short the time from 15 to merely 2 days leading Yeddyurappa to announce his resignation that too before the floor test following a long emotional speech.
And with all this, the fate of Karnataka still remains in the hands of Vajubhai Vala, whose “15-days” grant to BJP has been rejected by the apex court, who has been alleged by the Congress to provide advantage to BJP; the same Vajubhai Vala who had earlier served as a finance minister of Gujarat in Modi cabinet and had even vacated his MLA seat for Modi and had been appointed as Karnataka’s Governor by Modi himself after 2014 general elections.

But, even in such tough political circumstances, the beauty of democracy in India can be evidently seen when Congress, with its plea, reached the same SC at midnight against whose CJI the party had earlier moved the impeachment proposal despite knowing the fact that the motion was un-constitutional. But what becomes more interesting is the same CJI, abiding by the constitution, passed a decision that was favorable for Congress!

Although, we have to wait for Karnataka’s political future, the politics revolving around “power” also needs to draw a line. Because after the resignation of the 55-hr CM Yeddyurappa, may be Congress and JD-S will be successful in making coalition government but still it remains a government that has after all not been chosen by the public!
